    Hello

    I photographed this tree with the characteristic fruits in the venezuelan llanos. Apparently it is a member of the Apocynaceae, but I cannot decide if it is a Stemmadenia or a Tabernaemontana. Could someone help decide on the genus or perhaps species?

    Many thanks
    Dion

    Stemmadenia donnell-smithii (huevos de caballo), perhaps?
